Spending New Year’s In the Peak District

With Christmas just around the corner, the festive spirit is in full swing. But let's not forget about the exciting events that follow. In this blog article, we’ll take you through some of the best ways to kick off the New Year in the Peak District, from festive events at Losehill House Hotel and surrounding areas to serene walks through nature's finest settings.

New Year’s Eve at Losehill House

It would be silly for us to recommend what's going on in the Peak District, without showcasing our very own!

Here at Losehill House Hotel, we’re offering a two-night break including a 3-course dinner one evening and a 6-course New Year's Eve banquet in the Orangery, accompanied by guest performers Conal Duffy & His Band to set the mood right. Experience the thrill of fireworks, dance your heart out, or unwind in the cosy comfort of our spa facilities, all in the heart of the Peak District! You can find the full details on our Peak District New Year breaks page here. 


Scenic Walks

For those looking for something before diving into the evening's festivities, or maybe as a refreshing start to the New Year, why not spend the day exploring the Peak District's stunning walks and hikes? Right on our doorstep, these scenic trails are perfect for a daytime adventure, setting you up nicely for the night's celebrations.

Whether you're tackling a challenging hike like Kinder Scout or taking it easy with a stroll through Padley Gorge's serene woodlands, the Peak District is the perfect place to kick off the New Year. Maybe even pack a New Year’s picnic and find the perfect scenic spot to enjoy it. The views from Curbar Edge or the banks of Ladybower Reservoir are especially stunning – perfect for a memorable finish to the year.

This immersive celebration is the perfect way to celebrate the New Year if you consider yourself a music buff.
